stuffed-zucchini

Ingredients

4 large zucchini, halved lengthwise

2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil

4 links chicken sausage links, thinly sliced

1/2 c. italian breadcrumbs

3/4 c. shredded mozzarella

1/2 c. shredded fontina

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 c. chopped fresh basil

Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Score zucchini (like you’re dicing an avocado) and scoop out insides into a large bowl.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add chicken sausage and cook until seared, 6 minutes.

Transfer to a large bowl and add breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup mozzarella, fontina, garlic, and basil.

Spoon mixture into zucchini and top with remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella.

Bake until zucchini is tender and cheese golden, 15 minutes.
